Yasuni National Park Expedition Ecuador 1999 Welcome to the
Expedition Leader's web site. The Yasuni National Park Expedition was a
nine-week research project with the Huaorani of Ecuador. The Huaorani were
the last of Ecuador's indigenous groups to be contacted by missionaries in
1956. The eight researchers from Royal Holloway, University of London, worked
with the Huaorani of the Rio Shiripuno, to examine the issues surrounding
tourism in their communities and to document developments to their culture
and way of life. The team were accompanied by a survival expert from
Ridgefellows Outdoor Training Ltd., and a two-person camera-crew from Channel
4. Please follow the links below for more information. - Chris Abbott,
